Billy Joe/Chisora/Bugiloni/Cox --- Fri/BoxNation. Fact.

[ross]

Not the best bill, shame Chudinov pulled out. I have no idea why Saunders is doing this fight, he would get better action sparring then this. I wouldn't even risk it if I was Saunders, but I suppose for Warren Saunders' name will sell a few more tickets.


Good to see Chisora back though, theres still some interesting fights around for him IMO.

I think its actually Saunders who asked for it going by some of his interviews.

In one interview he said he didnt want to rematch Eubank because hed been out so long and would need a warm up first because hes actually been out 8 months already now!

Fair enough its a long time out, but this fight literally does nothing for him. Its just risky. As I said before he would get better rounds sparring than fighting this guy.

I dont know Saunders training setup but you would expect him to ise better wuality fighters in sparring?

Hes at the MGM, he works hard out there. I just don't see any points in this fight but fingers crossed its fairly routine because I am really excited for Saunders-Lee.

Imagine Saunders get injured and Lee fights Eubank instead and Eubank wins

Doubt Eubank would want to give away his precious interim WBA title so it wouldn't happen

I think it would.

That title although meaningless is a step on the ladder and a guarenteed place in the WBA rankings. If he had a straight shot at another title I reckon theyd jump at it.
